“Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it” (George Santayana)

At Roose School we are committed to bringing history to life by teaching and learning through and from history. We believe that it is in studying and understanding life and events in the past that we can come to an understanding of life in the present, and what we may be preparing for the future.

We study local and world, ancient and modern history. We strive to understand the reasons for events and developments and apply this understanding to the improving of life as we live it. The skills developed in the study of history are far reaching and can affect all aspects of our lives.
